Forum: Home Simulators - General

I recently added FSX software to my GC2. I am still in the learning phase but I came across one problem I can't seem to fix. I thought I read something somewhere on how to fix it but I can't seem to find it. The dropping balls on the greens are so light I can barely see them. Is there a way...

P3ProSwing has some refurbished simulators for for $499.00 plus shipping. Below is a listing for the simulator. Would you go Optishot or this route? Would like your thoughts on which way to go because of the free courses you get with optishot, compared to the expense of getting courses for the...

Does this mean that we could play their software with a Foresight GC2? I really hope so! http://thegolfclubgame.com/

Anyone have some software for the GC2 that they will be willing to part with? Looking for a basic range.

Quick question- do the Optishot and P3Pro (with and without launch software) allow you to use high lofted wedges--- or specifically, multiple wedges with unique lofts (50 degrees, 52, 58, 60, 64). I have a variety of different wedges I might use depending on the course and how I am playing and I...

Does anyone happen to know which courses are included in the new 5-pack they just released?

Hi all, Thx to this very good forum, I took the decision to purchase an optishot system (I live in France, but will be in the US next week, so I don't want to miss this opportunity to buy things without being charged for shipment !). Reading a lot of posts especialy those from Bubba, I...

At the feedback from people here I ordered a truestrike mat from intheholegolf.com. I ordered this mat on May 5th, to be told that the product is on backorder and will be shipped the end of May.

I have the performance fitting app for the GC2. Why doesn't it give you an option to switch it to lefty. When a lefty is swinging, the data is extremely confusing to read especially since they don't reverse the club face (I have HMT). Like for instance, the display can say the swing is...

Am I going to be fine with the customdesigngolf grass top option for my P3pro? The price is just so much cheaper than the P3 version. Any other specifics or options I need to know when ordering the CDG one? Thanks, Brad

I'm a newbie and I've read a lot of threads and have been told I'm a little slow lol but I just can't figure this out. I have a GC2 and both FSX software and its predesessor -they are ok - actually like the FS1 better primarily because of my familiarity with the range from taking lessons at...

Relative newbie with a Bluetooth connection. I have two gc2s and when I originally set it up I had both connected via USB and played fs1 and FSX with no problems. I didn't originally consider TGC because it doesn't work with two gc2s. After reading all of the great reviews on here for TGC I...

Kids were hitting with dirty clubs and I have a few marks on my screen. Ugh! The screen is custom made....it's a 2 piece screen system with a heavy mesh material along with a front screen that is made out of a trapeze material. Thanks! Pat

First time poster. Planning the build out of a simulator in my Garage. I will post my plan and please let me know if there is anything I could do better/ differently. System: Purchased an Optishot 2 for now, want to get a Foresight GC2 in the future. Screen/Net: Here is where I need...

I'm hoping to buy a Skytrak so I can play TGC with it in my Simulator. I already own TGC sim software and was hoping I can just purchase a Skytrak and set it up with my current software. I have read on Skytrak's website that I would need to: 1. Purchase their Game improvement package for...

I understand that one of the down-side to the GC2 is that if you are playing with another play who swings the other way, you are going to need to move the unit between shots. Has anyone done this with the GC2? Is it a real pain? Are there wires involved or is it wireless?

Came across the site while doing research on golf launch monitors. I've truly enjoyed all of the wonderful information gleaned from all the posts. I'm building my own hitting studio this fall and am anxiously awaiting the Skytrak release before purchasing my monitor. If Skytrak falls short...

Hi guys, First I would like to say that this forum has been an amazing experience for me. It is great to see a community of people who genuinely want to help other golf enthusiasts. The amount of time and patience that some of the main guys have shown on here with newbies like myself is...

I am looking for software to use with my Vector Pro. I have not been terribly impressed with Vector Pros driving range and wanted to see if there were some better ones on the market. To my understanding Ping nflight can be used with the Vector Pro but, I have called Ping and they will only allow...

With so many devices on the market which gives you true and accuate club head data???? I know trackman is the holy grail for ballflight data but does it give you accurate club head data? What about Swingbyte and Proswing swing analyzer? What about Protee? What about GC2 HMT The reason I ask is...

I AM NEED OF A PUTTING SURFACE THAT I WOULD LIKE TO PLACE IN MY GARAGE. MY GARAGE HAS MOISTURE SO I DON'T THINK CARPETS WILL DO SECONDARY TO MILDEW. I HAVE AN OUTDOOR ARTFICIAL GRASS IN THERE NOW THAT I PURCHASED FROM HOME DEPOT FOR $2 A SQUARE YARD BUT IT IS CRAP TO PUTT ON. I HAVE A LIMITED...

I have a GC2 but don't want to pay the for $5000 HMT just for club head data. I am staying away from analyzes that attach to club shafts as they don't appear to be accurate. Was thinking about purchasing a P3 PRO Swing Analyzer just to to get club head data. Wanted to know how accurate the unit...

I wanted to analyze my swing and wanted to know what software people recommended. I've heard of JC video, swing catalyst, V1 sports and Cswing. I plan to use it with The Golf Club. Lastly, what type of cameras do people use. I've heard there are MANTA (best?) and CCTV high speed cameras but, I...

I am looking for any advice I can get regarding the Optishot. I have been playing a few days now and really enjoy it . Putting is a little wierd but it is getting easier to control . The Irons seem to hit good but i am hoving to swing really hard to generate enough power . I dont hit the...

I am trying to set the offset on my clubs and the specs say 6.3 mm , but when i put 6.3 in the club it threw it all off . What did i do wrong please help . Thanks

I am trying to set up my Optishot with my clubs and i cant seem to find offsets for hybrid clubs , any ideas where to look thanks

Ok I was just wondering how other people are doing on this . I really enjoy it after setting up my clubs i hit in the high to mid 80's which is normal for me then i shot 2 75's which i have never broke 81 in real life. So how accurate is this machine ? and i havent gotten to hit any real balls...

I've read PayPal's buyer protection pages, and it seems fairly straightforward, but I was hoping to get confirmation from some who have been through this process. If a private seller sends an invoice stating what the item is and that it is in working order, and I pay using "pay for goods or...

I'm a little torn... don't really want to pay for the FR+1 SW when FRX is right around the corner (and then pay nearly $1k for the upgrade). An obvious solution is to wait to get my GC2 + FRX, but I'd rather not wait. Any ideas? Is the iPad app enough to get by until FRX comes out? Would...

Hello- Would love to start hitting indoors a bit more and acquire a GC2 for that purpose... but the challenge is a net. I have a small enough home where i can't dedicate a room to it, so a net that i can take up and down without a ton of hassle is key. Any recommendations? Thanks!

Looking at what I'd be spending on a home sim config, here's the two options I'm considering... option 1 - GC2 + the net return sim series + projector = $14k option 2 - p3pro + the net return sim series + projector = $4k What a massive difference. I don't have any plans to use the GC2...

Been ready to pull the trigger on a GC2 now for about 6mo, but the SW question remains the key logjam. Not interested in the years old FR1 SW and FSX seems to have an endless series of delays (not to mention the enhanced cost). Seems some like TGC... just want to make sure that I'm not getting...

As title states looking for e6 v1.6 courses. Would like to purchase your used usb/dongle. Not picky on courses. Has to be registered to trugolf trutrack system.

Looking for a used or new impact screen the closer to ottawa the better. Not picky on size, carls is a month away and would like to be playing sooner than that.

I would like to set up a simulator for my house. I think the GSA suits my needs i would like to know where would be a good starting point i already have Mats Projector and computer. They have a 699.00 price point but would like to have good equipment purchasing an item here or thier as i need it...

I have been gone for a while from this forum and just returning now. It looks like it grew! I finally bought a house and in a process of converting the 2 car garage into a simulator room. I have the P3ProSwing, versa mat, launch Angle (no camera yet), video capture, skills comp pack and the 2...

Bubba, i stl cant get myself to push the button on buying the courses. i know that me and u have the same level of appreciation for the P3ProSwing and Optishot. can you rate the graphics of 3DD (scale to 10) & do the same for P3Pro's GSA courses & P3Pro's Highlands/DDunes. I just need a...

Here is my set up in the garage. I under estimated how much clearance the screen needs from the wall. Right now, the ball flies back as if bounced directly from the wall. I am just using almostgolf ball. I would appreciate any advise on how to fix this issue aside from increasing the gap of the...

I have a P3ProSwing now but they are too slow to develop any ball measurement capabilities. I have been eyeing the Golf Achiever. As always, I am not well versed with the product, not to the extent of the inside stuff that is discussed here. I know several of you who ownded the P3Pro and...

For those who are wondering what P3ProSwing is like, here are links to videos I made. This should give you a pretty good idea of the experience: Version 4.2 Swing Analyzer Demo w/ Video Capture: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4j4rT3EWVaM Doral Blue Monster Long Drive Challenge:...

Ive been away for a while. I read the massive thread-specific for GC2 and LX. Question 1: does GC2 need an add on peripheral to allow putting? Question 2: does the LX need marking on the ball similar to Vector? Question 3: is LX more comparable to GC or the Vector? Thanks
